"""Test mempool persistence. By default, bitcoind will dump mempool on shutdown and then reload it on startup. This can be overridden with the -persistmempool=0 command line option. Test is as follows: - start node0, node1 and node2. node1 has -persistmempool=0 - create 5 transactions on node2 to its own address. Note that these are not sent to node0 or node1 addresses because we don't want them to be saved in the wallet. - check that node0 and node1 have 5 transactions in their mempools - shutdown all nodes. - startup node0. Verify that it still has 5 transactions in its mempool. Shutdown node0. This tests that by default the mempool is persistent. - startup node1. Verify that its mempool is empty. Shutdown node1. This tests that with -persistmempool=0, the mempool is not dumped to disk when the node is shut down. - Restart node0 with -persistmempool=0. Verify that its mempool is empty. Shutdown node0. This tests that with -persistmempool=0, the mempool is not loaded from disk on start up. - Restart node0 with -persistmempool. Verify that it has 5 transactions in its mempool. This tests that -persistmempool=0 does not overwrite a previously valid mempool stored on disk.
